[MUSIC] There are fans today who were too young to appreciate him while he was alive and there are those who were shocked by his early death. But all appreciate the music and life's work of Robert Nesta Marley; the child who was born into poverty in Jamaica and the man who grew to a legend and a national hero. May 11th marked 24 years since his passing, at age 36. Since then Marley has remained one of the leading voices in the fight for freedom against poverty and oppressive government (not to mention simply great tunes, which you and your auntie not only agree on but also both know all the words to). Arguably reggae's most important and popular artist, Marley's message is timeless and has connected people from all walks of life, all over the world. Come celebrate his legacy at Casanova's celebration, where DJ Packey Malley will present the film A Story of Bob Marley—Rebel Music (9 p.m.), which includes interviews and rare footage. Then Malley, along with DJ Kymba will take the stage (10:30 p.m.) and continue to spin the best in roots reggae throughout the night. One love! Admission: $10. For info, call 572-0220.
